Chapter 63
“Just one last step…” Holding a silver needle, Ye Chen targeted the white-haired elder’s Danzhong acupoint and swiftly inserted the needle.
“Wow…” As Ye Chen performed the procedure, the elder vomited a large amount of black blood and visibly looked much better.
“It’s done, the toxins have been expelled. He just needs to follow up with some herbal treatment,” Ye Chen said with a light smile.
“Thank you, divine doctor, thank you!” The elder, feeling the changes in his body, thanked Ye Chen excitedly. He could clearly sense the improvement in his condition.
“It’s nothing…” Ye Chen waved his hand dismissively, exuding an air of a transcendent being, impressing those around him.
“Truly a divine doctor, a Hua Tuo reborn,” someone in the crowd remarked. “He will definitely be a sought-after figure in Linjiang City!”
The flattery and admiration from the crowd left Ye Chen somewhat ecstatic. He couldn’t help feeling a sense of gratification. No wonder many people enjoy showing off, he thought, it feels fantastic!
However, Ye Chen’s smile soon faded as he noticed the elder’s deteriorating condition. “Elder, what’s wrong?” he asked with concern.
“I feel…” The elder started to say something but suddenly collapsed to the ground, struggling to breathe.
“What…” Ye Chen was stunned, realizing the elder had no pulse. Despite following his medical knowledge precisely, the treatment had gone horribly wrong.
He stepped back quietly, planning to slip away from the chaotic scene. Treating someone to death in front of so many witnesses, he knew he couldn’t explain his way out of it.
The servant beside the elder checked for a pulse and screamed, “Ah… he’s dead!”
The commotion attracted everyone’s attention. As the chaos unfolded, Ye Chen seized the opportunity to escape the scene, planning to explain the situation to Lin Xiyan later.
Seeing the dead elder, Lin Xiyan was completely baffled. She looked around, but Ye Chen was nowhere to be found.
“Lin family head, what kind of quack did you bring here? How dare he harm someone in public!” one of the guests exclaimed. “Lin family head, you must give us an explanation for today’s incident!” another demanded.
Lin Canghai frowned deeply, equally surprised by the turn of events. He had overestimated Ye Chen’s abilities. Now, with the doctor gone, Lin Canghai was left to deal with the aftermath of this disaster. “Everyone, please calm down…” he implored the agitated crowd.
“I’ll give everyone an explanation for what happened today. I’ll send someone to track down Ye Chen. Please give me some time.” Lin Canghai said loudly.
“I’m also heartbroken that something like this has happened. I was wrong to trust Ye Chen. I’ll give Old Brother Liu’s family an explanation.”
“Let’s end today’s banquet here. Everyone, please go back.” Lin Canghai waved his hand and ordered the guests to leave.
After what had happened, the banquet could not continue and hearing Lin Canghai’s words, the guests stood up and left one after another. Only the old man’s family stayed behind.
“Old Lin, I don’t blame you for what happened. After all, Ye Chen’s deception skills are superb. He deceived us all.”
“But you must tell me where this d*mn liar is hiding. I won’t let him go!” The white-haired old man’s son, Liu Tian, said angrily. His eyes were filled with undisguised killing intent.
He never thought that Ye Chen would be so bold as to kill his father in broad daylight in front of so many people! He should not have trusted this quack!
Lin Canghai frowned and did not reply. Instead, he looked at Lin Xiyan. How would he know where Ye Chen was? However, Lin Xiyan was his Senior Sister, so she should know where this guy lived.
“He just came to Linjiang City and has no fixed residence. I don’t know where he is either.” Lin Xiyan shook her head and said. She did not mean to lie. She just felt that this matter was a little strange. She planned to ask Ye Chen face to face.
After all, she had taken Ye Chen to treat Old Master Wang’s cancer last time. The sequelae of a stroke were not as difficult to treat as cancer, right?
Ye Chen could even cure cancer, but he could not cure the sequelae of a stroke. She felt that this matter was not that simple.
“Nephew Liu, you heard it too …”
“We don’t know where Ye Chen is either.” Lin Canghai said with a bitter smile. “But don’t worry. This happened to my Lin family. I won’t ignore it.”
Lin Canghai promised. He was also very resentful of Ye Chen. What the f*ck, a good birthday banquet was ruined by this guy.
“Alright…”
Liu Tian didn’t make things too difficult for Lin Canghai. He ordered people to carry his father’s corpse and left without bothering him too much.
He couldn’t afford to offend the Lin Clan. It wouldn’t do him any good if he continued to be entangled with them.
Moreover, his father was already dead, and he still had a bunch of funeral matters to deal with, so he didn’t have time to grieve.
…
“Ding! The host schemed against Ye Chen, stopping his rise and changing the plot. Reward: 3,000 villain points.”
“Ding! Ye Chen’s luck -1000. Reward: 2,000 villain points.”
“How much luck value does Ye Chen have left?” Jiang Che asked curiously.
“Ye Chen currently has 6,000 luck left.”
“There’s still so much?” Jiang Che was a little stunned. Looks like I didn’t trick this guy hard enough!
As for why the system rewarded him with so many villain points, it should be because Old Master Lin’s banquet was considered a turning point in the early stages of the story. It was the starting point of Ye Chen’s rise, but he had already mess it up.
“This fellow actually failed?” Gu Yunqi frowned as she watched Old Master Liu being carried away. She was quite confident in Ye Chen’s medical skills. She did not expect that this guy would fail one day.
Moreover, Ye Chen had killed Old Master Liu. If he wanted to climb up the ranks by treating others, it was basically impossible.
“What’s so strange about that? Who knows if such a person with ulterior motives did it on purpose?” Shen Qingqiu said coldly from the side. She did not seem to be surprised that Ye Chen would kill someone.
Gu Yunqi looked at Shen Qingqiu with a strange expression. She was basically certain now that there must be some conflict between Ye Chen and Eldest Senior Sister that could not be resolved.
Although Shen Qingqiu was not very close to Ye Chen in the past, she still had basic trust in him.
“Eldest Senior Sister, is there any conflict between you and Youngest Junior Brother?”
Jiang Yun’er looked at Shen Qingqiu curiously and asked. Her eyes were filled with curiosity.
She did not mean anything else. She just wanted to know what was going on between Eldest Senior Sister and Youngest Junior Brother. She also knew that Youngest Junior Brother loved Eldest Senior Sister very much.
Back when they were on the mountain, they had discussed this matter countless times with their senior and junior sisters.
“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask…” Shen Qingqiu glanced at Jiang Yun ‘er coldly. She could not be bothered to explain anything to her. In her heart, Jiang Yun’er had always been a brat …
“Hmph, Eldest Senior Sister is so fierce!” Jiang Yun’er snorted unhappily. She had seen Shen Qingqiu’s gentle attitude towards Jiang Che earlier. She was so sweet to a wild man and so fierce to her cute Youngest Junior Sister, right?
